Banking in Nigeria has gone through huge changes somewhat recently. The business has developed beyond anything anyone could ever imagine. During this time, the quantity of banks more than fivefold expanded, banking activities were essentially liberated, rivalry expanded, and banks had to be more creative and administration situated. Clients and the economy all in all anticipate that the financial framework should offer compelling and proficient types of assistance. It has been seen that a keep money with few issues will uphold and revive a respectable and dependable financial framework.

Tragically, the business' uncontrolled pace of development has brought about horrible incidental effects like an expansion in extortion and different types of banking wrongdoing, as well as money deficiencies, while bungle, liquidation, and illiguidity have been found to cut across the whole financial framework.
Among the various difficulties facing Nigerian banks are, yet are not restricted to:

1. Restricted capital base:
The Central Bank of Nigeria gave a mandate to all Nigerian banks a couple of years prior, expecting them to build their capital base from 1 billion naira to something like 25 billion naira by December 31, 2005. Most banks didn't have sufficient cash to meet the 1 billion naira necessity at that point. This brought about the abandonment of over 70% of Nigerian banks, as just 25 of the 89 banks arose as strong banks and met the 25 billion naira necessity. Have you at any point had your landowner raise your lease startlingly? That is unequivocally what these banks did.

2. Incredible skill and morals:
As a general rule, morals spins around a bunch of qualities, reformative rules, and rules that supply a person with a feeling of judgment and the capacity to recognize good and bad. As of late, the Central Bank of Nigeria has mediated to examine extortion, eagerness, insider misuse, and different issues. These were the results of deceptive conduct with respect to both bank representatives and the board. Untrustworthy conduct is to be faulted for bank trouble. Also apparently the punishments for these amateurish practices are immaterial.

3. Ineffectual corporate administration rehearses
Appropriate administration is basic in the financial business for further developing organization execution, drawing in financial backers, and an assortment of different reasons. Whistleblowing and business morals, which can be advanced through moral corporate administration, would without a doubt diminish misrepresentation in cash store banks. Tragically, an enormous number of Nigerian banks don't rehearse moral corporate administration. The new corporate administration code for banks is satisfactory to lessen bank trouble. In any case, do banks finish this?
 
The banking sector in Nigeria is becoming increasingly ineffective, despite being one of the country's most profitable industries. There are three problems currently obstructing this industry's effectiveness:
They have no way to monitor their employees' security practices, they have no way to monitor their customers' internet activity, and they have no way to identify their customers' criminal intentions.
The first problem has been addressed by the invention of a new technology that provides global surveillance with biometric identification, video monitoring of all public activity, and instant analysis of high-crime areas; the second problem has been addressed by a new technology that monitors internet activity and classifies content for risk assessment purposes; the third problem has been addressed by a new technology that analyzes customers' facial expressions and body language to identify their criminal intentions.

Nonetheless, I will still say these measures are not effective enough, I wouldn't blame it on the technology, but on the banking institution poor management. Even when there is a case of customers privacy violated or customers losing some amount of money due to some anomalous, they take it with negligence, they don't even try to contact the customer involved to inform them , even during a reported case they end up doing little or nothing to solve the problem.
 
It is really sad to see that Nigeria is having such kind of issues related to banking. However, the fact is that there are many other countries who are also facing such kind of system issues that are related to the banking sector. I think that there are many reasons why banking industry in a particular country might suffer. One of the biggest reasons is the lack of right amount of funds that are crucial to run the banking sector in the right way. Capital is important for all kinds of industries and businesses. So banking is also a kind of sector that needs capital to survive.

There are many other problems associated with banking sector that should be addressed. I think that the original poster did a really good job by mentioning the problems associated with administration. A lack of proper administration structure could also be bad for banks no matter how huge the supply of capital is! Of course each and every country has a limited supply of capital and it is the job of the administration to carry out business operations in such as way that would allow the banking system to run smoothly. These are some problems that should be solved.
